Team R.E.D. is a club dedicated to having fun while staying fit! We say: Run. Eat. Drink. Two Out Of Three Ain't Bad!
We meet twice a month at the Bears Den in Byron for a walk or run, and twice a month at a rotating location. We offer various routes each time, with distances suitable for walkers and runners. We have members of all paces.. all are welcome! If you'd like more information, please email us at byron.teamred@gmail.com

We had four new members join us at the Bears Den tonight.. that's awesome! - Truth be told, two of them officially joined Team R.E.D. at the TerraLoco Resolution Night, one joined Saturday morning during Off Season Striders, and one joined tonight! - Sometimes it doesn't matter how you get it one, just that you get it done!

Welcome to Jill, Lance, Shannon and Kasey!

Shannon Joins Team R.E.D.! - She'll be a great new member, and she's preparing for her first half marathon!
Tom might have been tip-toeing, it's hard to say for sure.

Jill & Lance Join Team R.E.D.! - They are crushing it... we'll like them too!

Kasey Joins Team R.E.D! - but she couldn't stay for he shirt presentation. There's a story here.. see below...

Kasey had once asked 'What does it cost to join Team R.E.D.?" and I replied with $20.. then some time passed by and she asked again, "What does it cost to officially join Team R.E.D.?" and I replied $1000 --- Well, after some negotiation, she got it done! The picture doesn't do it justice, but that's $20 with a Kidney in a Specimen Bag!
